Same issue for me, new Emby user, trying to drop Plex and use Emby but struggling with very low volume. 

I have installed the diagnostic plugin and in the Parameter Adjustment part I have Text To Replace I have put "volume=3" and I Replacement Text I have "volume=6" (with and without the quotes) but to no effect. 

 

Running on a nvidia shield Pro outputting via hdmi to a Yamaha rx-a1040 AV amp

Will gladly run any tests or provide any debug info requested

 

Thanks

Thanks for th response. I have turned on debug info, played a TV show and then hit send logs. Is there anything else I can do to help you diagnose the issue?

Hi.  Please provide this info:

Then add the following information to your report in the forum:
 
  • Exactly what you were doing and what happened.  Include the name of whatever you played if it is a playback problem
  • The time you sent the log (in Eastern Time please - UTC -5)
  • The name of the Emby user on the local server that was logged in at the time

Since my Kodi and Emby Next Gen setup has been down for about a month, I’ve been using the Emby app for FireTV. I’ve experienced this issue as well. It’s definitely downmixing the source to stereo. I’m surprised more people haven’t reported this “issue”. My biggest problem is my kids watch a lot of movies on the server and never lower the volume. If I forget, the whole house is awake!  Seems like a higher default volume value would make sense but I’ll try the plugin adjustment. Thanks

I am having this issue as well and have for the last 4 years.  I am not down mixing any movie and am only direct playing them.

Posting this also here cause....  not only me and a lot of ppl complaining.... So please excuse my "repost" from another thread : 

Why won't you simply include a "volume boost" not only during transcoding but in general ?  And make this optional with a warning that this could seriously impact the quality or even damage your sound system ?  Similar to VLC and whatnots....  I am a premium member because I like Emby, but seriously.....   this has been requested over and over and over again.... Just... include it into your clients....  Believe me - People WILL be happy. Thanks.

P.S. I am also seeing a low volume in some movies.... Of course I could turn the volume up on my soundsystem, but it is adjusted to be "ok" for everything else than Emby, so why should I touch it. BOOST OPTION PLZ!
